One of the Animal Tales books, a series of English-language children's readers about animals children are likely to recognise. The conceit is simple: each book is written in the animal's own voice, so the giraffe introduces itself and describes its own life to the reader rather than being described from the outside. The language is kept plain throughout.
At the back, a short section sets out some key information about the animal, separate from the first-person narrative — a factual note to go alongside the story.
Published in Colombo by M. D. Gunasena & Co. (Pvt) Ltd, with the text credited to Dolphine Press. It suits early readers working in English, whether reading alone or with an adult, and sits alongside the other animals in the same series.
